USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-san_jose: rotating San Jose IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-san_jose-zip-95134: narrows to ZIP 95134, one of 24 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-san_jose-asn-7922: asks for an IP on Xfinity's network (AS7922) when one is online in San Jose.USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-san_jose-session-sanj01-ttl-20: keeps one San Jose IP for up to 20 minutes; it can change earlier if the home device goes offline.City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. Test with one request before you script a run, and widen to the state if a filter is too narrow. Details: city-level targeting.
Per the FCC National Broadband Map (December 2025 data, read 2026-10-18), Xfinity (Comcast) reports wired service to 98% of San Jose's 371,578 homes and apartments. The other main wired providers are AT&T (87%). Fiber is available to 37% of homes and cable to 97%; copper DSL lines still reach 60%. Fixed-wireless home internet is offered by Verizon 5G Home (66%) and T-Mobile Home Internet (62%).
What this means for a San Jose proxy: a residential exit IP belongs to whichever home network the device uses, so Xfinity addresses are the most common kind in the city, but not the only one. Look up the ASN of the exit IP you get, and use asn- targeting when a test must run on one provider.
With 997,368 residents in 2024, San Jose ranks 12 among the 181 US cities over 150,000 on this site; the population fell 1.6% since 2020. It anchors or belongs to the San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA metro area (2.00 million people), which also includes Sunnyvale.
For tests that read local details, expect area codes 408 and 669, Pacific Time and ZIP codes such as 95134, 95002 and 95123. A proxy changes the IP only: set the time zone America/Los_Angeles and the language in your browser or tool yourself. Prices shown to California shoppers usually exclude sales tax: the state rate is 7.25%, and state plus average local rates come to 9.03% (Tax Foundation, July 2026). California has a consumer privacy law in force, the CCPA/CPRA (since January 1, 2020).
San Jose traffic costs the same as any other US city: $1.50 for 1 GB, $5.94 for 10 GB, and from $0.50/GB on the larger plans, as of October 2026. City, state, ZIP and ASN targeting are included in every plan, and unused GB never expire.

Pay in crypto only (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC). The top-up is the price of the plan you choose, less any balance you already have, and at least $25; anything left stays on your balance. No KYC — no ID, no selfie, no documents. Prices in USD.
Add the provider's network number: USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-san_jose-asn-7922 asks for Xfinity (AS7922). Per the FCC map, Xfinity serves 98% of San Jose homes. Combining city and ASN narrows the pool, so test with one request first; ASN targeting has no extra cost.
A free San Jose proxy server from a public list is usually a shared data-center or open machine, with no owner you can contact and no rules of use. A MetroProxies residential proxy routes through a home connection in San Jose, CA, with username and password, a public acceptable use policy and support by email. The San Jose segment is country-us-state-ca-city-san_jose.
MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in San Jose changes through the day. City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. Start with the 1 GB plan ($1.50) to test your own targets before you buy volume.
Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-ca-city-san_jose-session-sanj01-ttl-20 keeps one San Jose exit for up to 20 minutes. Sessions last up to 30 minutes; the IP can change earlier if the residential device goes offline. Use a new session ID to get a new San Jose IP.
San Jose numbers use 408 and 669; these codes overlay the same area, so any of them is local (NANPA, read 2026-10-18). A proxy does not give you a phone number: it only changes the IP address of your web requests.
Any five-digit ZIP code can go in the zip- segment. 24 ZIP Code Tabulation Areas lie mostly inside San Jose, among them 95134, 95002, 95123 and 95112 (2020 Census relationship file). A small ZIP has fewer homes online at once, so widen to the city if a ZIP returns errors.
